Help!!! Best beaches in Ecuador, Peru or Uraguay

Help! I am trying to figure out which country to go to for a little beach vacation. I'll be traveling there in mid October.

Ideally, I'd love to go to a beach that has a great surf hostel and that is easily accessible from an international airport as I will be flying out of Buenos Aires. I only have 6 days (including travel) to spend, and am completely at a loss as to where to go!!

I love the idea of mancora, peru or montanita, Ecuador but it seems like getting to these places is half the battle!
